The SufferFest

SufferFest videos use Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) to show how hard you should ride. There is no a direct 1:1 mapping between RPE and Power. This is because as you fatigue an RPE of say 8 can equated to less power, perhaps 25% less at the end of an hour long workout. The power files presented here have been tuned to give a bit more recovery and a bit less top end power towards the end of the workout. We give the difficulty out of 100 - 100 being the same as riding an hour at FTP. We also welcome improvements so if you see something wrong send us a new power file. The big advantage with using WattzAp is there is no hiding place, you can see instantly if you are not up to the mark.

Downward Spiral

Want to follow Tom Boonen's wheel in the Paris-Roubaix or escape from the pack at the summit of the Mur de Huy for a lone win on the Fleche Wallone. The hour long Downward Spiral is built around 2 sets of 8 flat out intervals. They get shorter each time, but harder with less time for recovery.

Hell Hath No Fury

The classic 2x20 threshold training spiced up as a women's stage race. Tkae on Marianne Vos, Emma Pooley and Evelyn Stevens in races such as the Tour of Flanders and the GP Plouay. Oh there's Marion Rousse in there too; yes THAT Marion Rousse!
